Weddings at the Mount

Exchange vows and mingle with loved ones against the backdrop of The Mount’s colorful, award-winning formal gardens and the elegant interior of Edith Wharton’s historic mansion. Spanning nearly 50 acres, the gracious, spectacular estate is the perfect setting for an unforgettable wedding.
During your event, the entire estate is closed to our visiting public so your guests can explore the house and gardens.
For your ceremony location, choose from the exquisite French Flower Garden, inspired by the gardens at Versailles, or the intimate Italian Garden, inspired by renaissance architecture.
After your ceremony you can host cocktails throughout the mansion and on the expansive terrace overlooking The Mount’s meticulously manicured property and the mountains beyond. Your guests are invited to wander through the exhibits on the mansion’s third floor.
We can host up to 250 guests for dinner and dancing on our expansive tent site.

We will provide ideas, but encourage you to make creative choices so that your own personalities and styles are brilliantly reflected in your special event. Additionally, we make available a comprehensive list of regional vendors who can aptly assist in the following roles: Caterers, Florists, Photographers, Videographers, Sound rental, Entertainment, Event rentals (tents, chairs, dance floors, etc.).

We also offer our historic 1902 Stable as a venue for rehearsal dinners, after parties and other special events.
The Mount Bookstore is available to assist you with elegant accessories, personalized gifts, and memorable Mount exclusives. We specialize in bridesmaid and groomsmen gifts, wedding favors, and personalized hotel welcome bags for your guests and family.
